You may wonder why Cape Town Daily Photo is nearly a week behind on it's... well... daily photos. Kerry-Anne recently underwent a hip arthroscopy and has been slowly recovering the use of her left hip joint. So, you can imagine that we haven't been getting around quite as much as we'd otherwise like to have been; and your's truly has been playing the role of the devoted husband, providing for her every whim instead of keeping the daily photos coming. :)
In case you're concerned, the operation went pretty smoothly and I'm pleased to report that she's nicely on the mend and will soon be hopping, running and skipping.
If you're in the Northern Suburbs and on the hunt for a skilled orthopedic surgeon who specialises in hip joints, leave a comment here and I'll send you the doctors details - we'd certainly recommend his services.

Hey Paul – glad to hear Kerry-Anne is recovering well after her op.
As for the wheel-chair symbol – it’s not just for those in wheel-chairs but anyone to park who has their vehicle registered as one for a disabled person.
See International Symbol of Access – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Symbol_of_Access

Post authorThanks Deems, and thanks for the link to the origin of the symbol! As the article says, it was designed in 1968 and is currently maintained as an international standard under ISO 7001.
On a side note, if I’m ever on “Who wants to be a millionaire” and this bit of info comes in handy – I’ll be sure to give you your fair share. :D
Deems
Ha ha, you’re welcome :)

*lol* When I read your commment on that — imho — well-known sign, I first thought my irony detector must be damaged. Now, I’m not sure. Is it? :D

Post authorAli – I’ve been looking for the irony and except for spotting a misplaced comma – I don’t see it.
If the first sentence of the article were true, I guess that would be ironic – but help me out, where’s that (unintentional) irony? :)
